A prisoner of war from 1942-45, he set out to record his experience through drawings and a diary; lack of materials forced him to improvise by utilising whatever materials were available, including bitumen paper, biscuit wrappers and the backs of labels from tins.

 [NAZI WAR CRIMES]: A rare dossier containing the original English carbon typed documents relating to the trial of two German officers, SA-Oberscharfuhrer Johann Csar and Josef Pechbock, accused of the murder of Jews, the dossier comprising over 100 folio pages and including the certified English translations of the statements of the two accused officers and over thirty other individuals, most of them witnesses to the events surrounding the killings, and also including the Investigator’s Report, Identification Parade Reports, Exhumation Reports performed by the pathologist Dr. Tollich, as well as related photographs of the crime scene etc., all prepared for the Investigation Branch of the Atrocities Section at Graz and gathered from interviews taken at Leoben Police Station between January 1946 and March 1947. The documents state that the investigation concerned a Jewish transport which was passing through Trofaiach on the 7th April 1945 under the escort of SS officers when it stopped at the end of the village of Kurzheim, at the front of the Gladen Hill, as many of the Jews were too exhausted to ascend the hill before them. At this stage, the report continues, two Jews were led into the forest and shot dead, although also states that a third Jew was shot. The report also gives details of two graves which were opened at Kehrwald on 29th January 1946, one containing four bodies and the other seven, at least two of the bodies showing evidence of gunshot injuries despite the decomposed state of the corpses. The statements of the accused and witnesses etc. read, in part, ‘On 7th April 1945, the Volkssturm from Trofaiach was ordered to escort a Jewish transport. The order was given by the Company-Leader HOFEREG……In his order the Zugfuhrer used the following words, “If anybody steps out of the convoy, he has at once to be shot at.”……..At the end of the village Kurzheim, a horse and cart was standing beside the road on the meadow, and a dead man was loaded on to it…….Some 50 steps from the cart two foreign labourers were dragging a man from the forest and he was still giving signs of life. He had a hole in his head above his right ear, and was bleeding out of the wound. I was of the opinion that somebody had shot this man with a pistol…….I heard two shots coming from the direction where the cart was standing. In my opinion these were pistol shots’ (extract from the statement of Sebastian Aigner, a crane driver residing at Trofaiach, 25th January 1946), ‘In April 1945, on the morning of the day when the big Jewish transport was conducted through Trofaiach I was with my comrade CSAR……It might be that CSAR had a pistol, I myself was not armed……..It is an insolent lie, if CSAR or anybody else alleges that I took part in the Jewish transport and that I was in Kurzheim. I cannot imagine at all, how anybody can come to this assumption……Before CSAR and I went to look for LOSCH……He said that he had not enough escorts for the Jewish transport and that he needed some more men. I told him I could not go with the transport because I had got a special order, respectively another order. This was rather an excuse lest I should be obliged to join the transport. In fact I was looking for a captain of the Wehrmacht’ (extract from the statement of Franz Berbin, Ortsobmann with the DAF, the German Labour Front, 30th January 1947), ‘Mrs. PREIS told me that CSAR must not return to Trofaiach as he had committed offences against the Jews……She told me, that CSAR had shot some Jews and she intended to report him…….I was not informed by my sister where he had murdered the Jews, and what kind of fire-arm he had used’ (extract from the statement of Elsa Burg, 17th June 1946), ‘I do not wish to give any statement about the accusation of Mrs. HOFFERECK and perhaps some other witnesses saying that my husband had murdered 2 or 3 Jews, as I have four children’ (extract from the statement of Gertrude Csar, 17th June 1946), ‘In November, 1944…..I was a Volkssturm man at first, later on being promoted to the rank of a Gruppenfuhrer and Zugfuhrer…….There were 8 or 10 men produced by the Company for the Jewish transport…..I myself was not detained for this purpose. I rode on my bicycle after the transport……I was dressed in S.A. uniforms and was armed with a pistol, I rode alongside the column in order to see if everything went right and without incidents. In doing so I heard several shots from the top of the hill, in the forest. I went to that place and I saw in the forest……Two shot Jews lying on the ground……I did not see who had shot the Jews and I also was not present…….I had nothing to do with the whole Jewish-transport and I did not give any orders…….the Komp. Fuhrer HOFFERECK declared at a meeting, at which I took part as well, that the Jewish transport was to be carried through with strict discipline……..And all Jews who are unable to follow on the march are to be shot inconsiderately. I repeated this order to the men before marching away and I also told them that any Jews, being unable to march on should be shot at once……’ (extract from the statements of Johann Csar, 25th January 1946 & 31st January 1947), ‘The Jew had a bald head and I could see a wound on his forehead. I presume it was rather a shot wound than any other kind of injury……..At that moment also, a certain LECHNER and AIGNER passed by us. PECHBOCK and I noticed that the Jew was still death-rattling, that is to say he was still alive. I fired on my own accord two shots to the head of the Jew from a distance……The shots were fired one after another. After that……PECHBOCK shot at the Jew with his rifle, without having been induced by me to do so……the Jew did not give any sign of being alive afterwards. As far as I know PECHBOCK shot at the head of the Jew’ (extract from a further statement made by Csar on 17th June 1946), ‘In Kurzheim, at the end of the village…….there was a stoppage of the transport due to exhaustion of transport prisoners, who were unable to walk up the hill so quickly…….The SS man called two Jews who were so exhausted that they were nearly unable to march on. The SS man then conducted the two Jews a little into the forest. When the Jews were still marching, the SS man drew his pistol and shot the Jew into his neck……..I saw this man fall then turned away, because I did not like to watch that. Immediately after I heard another shot and I thought that the SS man now had shot the other Jew as well……..When the SS man came out of the forest, I went to meet him telling him that I would stop with these dead men. The SS man told me to do so, and said that the Jews would be fetched by a cart later……It was about five minutes after the SS man had gone, that I heard a shot…….In my opinion it was a pistol shot…….As far as I remember, CSAR was armed with a pistol and I think that PECHBOCK might have had a rifle’ (extract from the statement of Arthur Delugan, a wood cutter, 13th January 1947), ‘I was made “Sturmfuhrer” by the SA Brigade with retrospective effect from April 1938….. I was only engaged in the SA, but did not take any active part in the activities of the NSDAP with whom I was a simple member…….I did not only look after the political interests but also after human interests of the population and workers…….It is mean and irresponsible if anyone alleges that I should have given instructions for ill-treatings or shootings of Jews. That is a big lie and a slander…….OWING TO RESTRICTIONS IMPOSED BY THE SALEROOM THE COMPLETE DESCRIPTION FOR THIS LOT CANNOT BE DISPLAYED - PLEASE CONTACT IAA Ltd FOR FURTHER INFORMATION

GEORGE WASHINGTON JACK (1855-1931) FOR MORRIS & CO.ARTS & CRAFTS SATINWOOD AND EBONY INLAID MAHOGANY SIDE CABINET, CIRCA 1898 the top with six open shelves divided by inlaid chamfered chevron columns, above three astragal glazed doors enclosing a shelved interior, profusely decorated inlaid bands and borders depicting scrolls and stylised foliage, the side panels also inlaid, raised on waisted chamfered feet, with a key178.5cm wide, 152cm high, 60cm deepExhibited: Madrid, Fundación Juan March and Barcelona, Museu Nacional d'Art de Catalunya 'William Morris and the Arts & Crafts Movement in Great Britain' October 2017-May 2018Note: George Jack trained as an architect but, like many of his contemporaries, he also designed furniture and furnishings and made a range of plaster reliefs and wood-carvings. He worked for Philip Webb, a friend of the designer William Morris, and architect of Morris's own home, Red House. This connection led to Jack receiving commissions to design pieces for Morris & Company, alongside his architectural work. The companion cabinet to the current lot, also with exceptional inlaid decoration, is held at the Victoria & Albert Museum in London (museum number W.42:1 to 8-1929) which was one of several pieces of furniture made specially as stage props for the first run of 'The Crusaders' by Henry Arthur Jones at the Avenue Theatre in London in 1891. Morris & Company were credited in the programme, which also requested 'the indulgence of the audience' between acts as 'the stage is small and the scenery rather elaborate'. It seems likely that someone attending the play may have commissioned the present lot as the play acted as a promotion for the firm.Amongst George Jack's most powerful furniture designs for Morris & Company, only six of these richly inlaid cabinets are known. Created between 1893 and 1906, they number among the most expensive pieces ever advertised by the firm. One example is in the Victoria and Albert Museum, one (probably from Jack's own collection) is now at the Philadelphia Museum of Art and a third is in the collection of the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts.
